- A pound under round 2 this morning 🙌
I know this will prob fluctuate in the next two weeks as my chart has a pattern of lose, hold for a few days, and drop.
But, still just a nice little momentum boost to keep the habits going.

Bit of a rant here:
I played high school football and while I can’t say I was very good lol, I was very very strong with a dedication to the weight room. I really haven’t lifted weights in the same way, ever since.
In the last two months, I’ve joined a true “lifters” gym and have been working with a personal trainer to get myself reacquainted with various lifts for the first time in 14 years. Tonight, I deadlifted 400lbs for 3 reps and had lots of gas left in the tank to keep going. Felt damn good and I’m feeling pretty proud of myself.
My health kick that really woke me up was getting set up with a primary care physician and taking a blood panel that really sucked if I’m being honest. It scared me a lot. I felt like at 32, my best years were behind me and I was doomed for a shorter life of chronic illness because I hadn’t taken care of myself.
Starting to see I may have jumped the gun on my fear and shame spiral haha, our bodies are amazing and as the pounds are coming off and my lifts are going up I’m feeling extremely hopeful and optimistic for a long healthy life ahead.

- Came in under my round 1 goal today!
Trying to build a nice buffer with one week to go.
I’ve really found my groove with intermittent fasting. I’ve found rolling 48 hr fasts and heavy emphasis on protein + fiber in my meals to be extremely beneficial to me. My sleep is incredible while in a fasted state, I mean, out like a light!!
This combined with going heavy in my lifts while in an autophagy state; the changes are happening and I’m just really proud of myself :)
Hope everyone is finding success and pride in their efforts. Happy to chat with anyone who is struggling, would love to help in any way in can!!
